argh, Iwish I could see them again.

They kinda did have lasers at the show....I think they skillfully made them miss Mister Billy's head so we wouldn't all go blind.
but imagine telling your grandkids that one, 'I went to a Smashing Pumpkins concert- best night ever- and got blinded by a bald head' Tehe


Ahahah.
What a way to go blind, though.

pretty good, you remembered a lot of them

your complete set list was:

Porcelina
Behold! The Night Mare
Bring The Light
Tonight, Tonight
Mayonaise
Try, Try, Try
Superchrist
Come On Let's Go
Stellar
Perfect
Lily
The Rose March
Today
Tarantula
Stand Inside Your Love
Ava Adore
Drown
Bullet With Butterfly Wings
1979
That's The Way
My Blue Heaven
The Everlasting Gaze
Cash Car Star
Daydream
Wound
United States
I Don't Mind
Cherub Rock


I love a lot of the song transitions. SIYL -> Ava Adore. And also The Everlasting Gaze -> Cash Car Star

Oh and also, I ended up not submitting to sp.com. I have a feeling that they would try to shut me up about anything we would have been told. They used to do it that way before first official board closed. We knew things we couldn't tell other people...which of course we told our friends anyway, but couldn't tell the general public.
Not to mention, I don't exactly, um, get along with some of the other super fans. We have some conflicts between us. I prefer to not associate with them if I don't have to, which I have a feeling I would have had to.

In short, it wouldn't have been nearly as fun as it used to be.

nothing of any real interest or importance now Laughing

We just got heads up on the days that Billy was planning on coming on the board to make announcements and stuff. We knew about tour dates and things (this was during the Zwan Era though that I was an administrator) During that time we were monitored often by Sony (who was funding the site at the time), so we had to be careful what we said about certain things, people and other such.
Though Billy supposedly used to post under a regular username (as in not using his name.) to interact with us on a regular basis and we didn't know it. Wouldn't surprise me if he had, despite what he says, he totally reads what gets said about him on the SP community boards.

Had it perks though. Depending on who you knew, you could get free tickets, backstage passes, after party invites, etc etc. I never got to take advantage of any of it, but I think I've done well for myself the last few years Wink

I wanted to work on Zwan.com, but there were, ah, issues. It all worked out in the end. I started a my own site, became a major competitor for the official Zwan site. David Pajo was even registered on my message board. The official Zwan site also never quite reached it's potential, and all of us running other Zwan sites were very friendly with each other; so we banded together and formed a network of sites that pretty much covered every resource.

It was really all just for fun. I never got paid or anything. But man, I dedicated tons of time to every site I ever worked on. I would reopen my SP site if I had the time to dedicate to it. But I would rather not do it than do it halfway.

me too, Angie. When it comes to you and Pumpkin-ness, I'd give up any time I have.

inner conflicts between fans kinda bums me out though, espeically because of what it can do [for example, INO ripping each other apart because of Eliza and whatever]
but if you didn't feel right entering then it's probably good that you didn't Smile

^ ditto.

I hate when stupid crap tears fans apart.
It's just sad and you know the actual band has to be super disappointed in their fans.

Okay guys... I need your help.
Sooo! I'm going to see MCR on their tour and I wanted to give Gerard something Corgan-related and I need some pictures from the Zeitgeist tour that show Billy in his little oompa loompa wannabe outfit. I may make a Billy doll or a shirt or something but it has to be like amazingly awesome. So Gerard's not like 'ew thanks *throws in trash*'

Pretty please?

i think it's made of bike reflectors Wink lol and it looks ridiculous since he continues to wear the striped socks with it. He's so lucky they aren't near here, I would so tell him he looks stupid.

In other news, they debuted the video for Superchrist today. It's really bad, Jeff and Ginger aren't in, and you barely see Jimmy and Billy. I don't suggest you watch it, but if you do, you've been warned. It's on SP's MySpace.

And I was already annoyed because I'm missing the amazing opportunity to see SP and MCR play at the same show, because I can't take the time off from work. But hey, I'll get to see MCR anyway in May and I should totally be like, so Gerard, what your opinion on Billy's skirt?

hahaha Gerard might be afraid to say anything bad about Billy. BC is, after all, a pretty scary man when he's pissed.
I should offer to make Gerard his own skirt of bike reflectors. just to see his reaction. Laughing

Hey, Billy is used to whatever may come out of my mouth. I don't think anything surprises him anymore. He even gives it right back to me...which always somehow catches me off guard.
Gerard however....we've never met before. Oh the potential... Twisted Evil
